I had never seen Kristin Wiig‘s “Penelope” character on Saturday Night Live, but now that I have I can say it’s the funniest thing since “Taco Town.”
Watch the new Penelope skit with Molly Shannon:

I personally prefer her Target Cashier and her A-hole “You look like a rabbit.” characters more. But my favorite performance of Wiig was when she appeared at the end of “My Super Sweet Sixteen” spoof:
“Daddy… WHY won’t Shakira wrestle an alligator?! She’s acting like a total immigrant!”
Hilarious.
I don’t watch SNL often simply because it isn’t what it used to be. When I tune in its usually to try and catch Penelope (and Amy doing the Weekend Update)
